Timeline
She later received a master's degree in global development and social justice from St. John's University in 2014.
In lamenting the lack of women in Malawi's literary sphere in 2013, the president of the Malawi Writers Union identified Karim as one of only a handful of well-known women writers in the country, alongside Emily Mkamanga and Walije Gondwe.
From 2007 to 2015, Karim was appointed to serve in the Permanent Mission of Malawi to the United Nations, where her father once served as ambassador. At the U.N., she worked on social, cultural, and human rights issues, representing the country at UNICEF and other bodies.
Alongside her work as a journalist, Karim became an activist and advocate for women's rights and safety. She was also active in the Society of Women Living With AIDS. She spoke out in favor of including women in the media, saying in 1998, "The African media cannot go into the 21st century hopping on one leg. Women must be partners in the future of Africa."
After leaving Malawi News, Karim founded and served as editor of Woman Now magazine, the first women's magazine in the country. In 1993, she also founded the newspaper the Independent. Karim and her peers had developed a complex understanding of how to navigate the country's censorship rules during the one-party era, which eased the way for her to start her own publications. Later on, the Independent often voiced opposition to the policies of the new ruling government.
Karim returned to Malawi, where she received her bachelor's degree from the University of Malawi in 1979.
